Latics fans have been offered free travel for the trip to the County Ground on Good Friday, March 25, for the televised Sky Bet League One match versus Swindon Town. Tickets will go on sale to supporters this week, as detailed below.

The kick off has been put back to 5.30pm for Sky Sports and Latics Chairman David Sharpe said it was important for the supporters to be able to back the players in person.

“The fans have been unbelievable this season in the way they have travelled and backed the team in numbers,” he said, “and we feel this is something we can do for them in return.

“This is an absolutely crucial part of the season and we want to help Gary and the players keep up the momentum in every way we can.”

Latics will receive an initial allocation of 960 tickets for the match, with more available on demand.

The tickets will be sold as follows:

FROM 9.00am, WEDNESDAY 24 FEBRUARY: Hospitality Members
FROM 9.00am, THURSDAY 25 FEBRUARY: 2015-16 Season Card Holders
FROM 9.00am, THURSDAY 3 MARCH: General Sale (to registered supporters of Wigan Athletic with a previous booking history for fixtures at the DW Stadium)
